This book assesses the nature and extent of the project of deracialisation required to counter the contemporary dynamics of racialisation across four varieties of modernity: Sweden, South Africa, Brazil and the UK, based on original research on each of the four country contexts. Since racism began to be recognised or identified as a problem, an assemblage of supra-national initiatives have been devised in the name of combatting, dismantling or reducing it. There has been a recent shift whereby such supra-national bodies move toward embedding strategies against racism within the framework of human rights and devolving such responsibility to other bodies at a national level. The book brings together a team of international experts in this field, in order to compare the priorities and effectiveness of current strategic approaches in each national context, examining their relationalities and connecting these cases within a joint theoretical and methodological framework. Thus, this book contributes to theoretical knowledge on racialisation and deracialisation, and establishes new principles and practice for national projects of deracialisation and anti-racism, building on cross-national learning.

Ausgehend von einem dynamischen Kulturbegriff, in dem die Vorstellung einzelner voneinander unabhängig existierender Nationalkulturen aufgehoben wird, setzt sich der Band mit den vielfältigen kulturellen Verschränkungen im europäischen Raum auseinander. Auf der Basis der Kulturtransferforschung werden in 15 Fallstudien kulturelle Wechselbeziehungen zwischen verschiedenen europäischen Ländern beschrieben und ihre Auswirkungen auf die kulturelle Entwicklung analysiert. Der zeitliche Bogen spannt sich dabei vom 18. bis zum 20. Jahrhundert und macht so deutlich, dass kulturelle Austauschprozesse nicht ausschließlich ein Phänomen der Gegenwart sind, sondern eine Grundkonstante kultureller Entwicklung darstellen. Einen zentralen Schnittpunkt bildet die Wiener Moderne, für deren Erforschung sich die Transferperspektive als äußerst fruchtbar erwiesen hat, weil die bewusst kosmopolitische Öffnung zu anderen Metropolen sowie die innerhalb des Habsburgischen Vielvölkerstaats bestehende ethnische und kulturelle Heterogenität ein konstituierendes Merkmal der Epoche bilden. Ergänzt wird dieser Forschungsbereich durch Untersuchungen von Transferprozessen zwischen dem deutschen, französischen und englischen Raum sowie durch Beispiele transkontinentaler Austauschprozesse. BeiträgerInnen aus nicht weniger als acht Disziplinen und sieben Ländern gewährleisten dabei eine vielschichtige Perspektive auf das Phänomen kultureller Wechselwirkungen.
